lookupService

external fun lookupService(address: String, port: Number, callback: (err: ErrnoException?, hostname: String, service: String) -> Unit)(source)

Resolves the given address and port into a host name and service using the operating system's underlying getnameinfo implementation.

If address is not a valid IP address, a TypeError will be thrown. The port will be coerced to a number. If it is not a legal port, a TypeError will be thrown.

On an error, err is an Error object, where err.code is the error code.

const dns = require('node:dns');
dns.lookupService('127.0.0.1', 22, (err, hostname, service) => {
console.log(hostname, service);
// Prints: localhost ssh
});

If this method is invoked as its util.promisify() ed version, it returns a Promise for an Object with hostname and service properties.
